Very interesting film that shows Richard Wagner's "Ring Cycle" from the perspective of stage hands. While some of the stage hands have a great understanding of the plot and what it is about, they all have problems pronouncing character names. The film presents the flux and flow between long periods of waiting (where many of the stage hands play poker or watch sports), and incredibly complex stage craft, where these professionals work as team. At times, the work done by these stagehands has a feeling of choreography. There is a scene that shows a stagehand repetitively nailing fabric to a deck, and the easy and accuracy with which he does it shows his professional abilities. Highly recommended for Wagner fans, opera fans, or those interested in stagecraft.

Stagehands flirting with operatic mermaids, playing poker and listening to heavy metal below stage while Wagner fans swoon in the balcony: surrealism has nothing on reality. It may just be the years I spent working in theater, but this documentary had me laughing so hard I cried.

Want to see the other side of the Opera curtain? This is only an hour long but very enjoyable

A must-see if you were ever on stage crew in high school.
